A member of the Court requested a poll on the petition for rehearing en banc. The poll failed to produce a majority of the judges in active service in favor of rehearing en banc. Judges Widener, Niemeyer, and King voted to rehear the case en banc, and Judges Wilkinson, Wilkins, Luttig, Williams, Michael, Motz and Traxler voted against rehearing en banc. The Court denies the petition for rehearing and rehearing en banc.
